Which would have been seen as an obvious ploy to create the easiest path to an LSU win, not match up the two best teams...which is the ONLY purpose the BCS ever had.


True but at the end of they day, the job is to what you have to (legally) to put your team in the best position to win. If that means lobbying to make sure you don't have to play the best college coach in the business twice in one year.......so be it.

Now I can't really disagree with this point. I'm just saying it probably would have hurt more than it would have helped. It would have been rightly seen as a de facto admission by Miles that Alabama was better than OSU...and therefore more deserving according to the stated mission of the BCS to bring the two best teams together.
